RESEARCH: THE EPANET NETWORK
Epanet is the research network of the University Consortium of Seinäjoki (UCS). It is a regional network that brings together 25 research groups focusing on four main areas. Each group is led by a professor or research director affiliated with one of the member universities. In addition to being regional, Epanet is also international in that research groups operate in international networks with partners and also receive international funding.

Epanet is based on a vision of UCS research as internationally known for its high-quality, multidisciplinary approach that merges academic and societal needs and outputs. By 2022, UCS knowhow and research will be a point of reference for co-operative spirit in action, for business co-operation, and for initiatives on new types of academic services. Read more about the strategy below.
Epanet funding is for the most part collected and administrated by the University Association of South Ostrobothnia (Epky) that also co-ordinates the Epanet network (site in Finnish), thus the close relationship between UCS and Epky.
